Overly-priced and Messy salon: So being new in the area I was looking for a salon to make my new hair care home. I stumbled upon Aby's Salon online and after some research I decided to try it out. I noticed none of her prices were listed so I called and asked the price for single plaits and was told $200. I then asked her about two-strand twists and she told me $60 to $80. After some contemplation, I buckled and decided to go through with it since I needed my hair done pretty quickly. I told her I will be in later that day and she confirmed the time. I came in and FIRST thing I noticed was a strange man sitting in one of the salon chairs, Aby sitting nearby talking on her phone, and the salon was very dirty and disorganized, lots of hair on the floor. Not what I was expecting since she had such a nice website and some nice reviews. I felt hesitant at that point because it is very off-putting and I felt uncomfortable. Still, I decided to give it a chance. I walk to the salon chair and after sitting down, it is then I noticed a sign saying that they only accept cash and I did not have cash on me. I was dissapointed since I would have appreciated it if she told me that prior to me arriving there. She directs me to an ATM down the road (that probably would have charged me a fee) and says my final price after looking at my hair was $80. I tried to use the coupon advertised on her website for new clients for 10% off and she told me it has to be printed out...I thanked her for her time and just got in my car and decided it was not worth it and booked at another salon. All in all, the presentation of the salon was terrible, especially for being so highly priced, and I should have been told more info. prior to arrival, from 20 minutes away, that they only accept cash...ugh.

Very unprofessional. I scheduled an appointment with the owner to give me Marli twist and she said she would charge me $180 which I was okay with. But when I arrived she was not there, it was someone else named “Jennifer” there to do my hair because the owner neglected to tell me that she wasn’t showing up because she was sick. Jennifer had an attitude and tried to charge me $250 after I already talked about the price with the owner. Also my appointment was at 10:00 and Jennifer did not start on my hair until 30 mins later because she wanted to finish her breakfast. The job Jennifer did was awful, the parts were not neat, I had twist coming out the 2nd day after getting my hair done and the owner refused to give me my money back, not even half of my money back. I kept the twist for a couple of days before I took them out because it couldn’t even last. I do not recommend for anyone to go here. You can find so many talented braiders on Facebook in the Tampa area for much cheaper and they will provide the hair!

Aby's shop is very professional and timely. My daughter and I have been coming here for awhile. Everyone in the shop is very nice and friendly. They get right down to business, once you sit in the chair. I highly recommend, Aby's African Hair Braiding. Keep up the good work ladies.

Joyce A sorry honey but you lied about your experience at Aby's I was there when you came asking for at least 10 different hair styles you knew you could not afford. First of all you were late then you Came with no money asking for discounts. The man you talking about was her husband. You were very rude and unplaisant. I think you should maybe spend your time looking for a job so you can afford a hair do instead of sitting on the internet leaving false comments. Aby is a great hair styler I have been going to her for years and I'm always satisfied with my hair.
